Yet Another Chef Breaks Out On His Own

The Gage's executive sous chef Mark Steuer just gave notice so he can finally dedicate time to working on his own venture.

Then he gloriously followed that up with an announcement of his forthcoming project: The Bedford.

In December, he exclusively told 312DD that he's settled on an underutilized space in the Wicker Park/Ukrainian Village area. And while he wouldn't disclose the concept, we have a pretty good idea he'll take a page or two from his current employer at The Gage as well as Hot Chocolate—where he served as chef de cuisine for a few years.

We'll keep you posted . . .
